BIOLOGICAL CONTROL OF KILN BROWN STAIN IN RADIATA PINE
Kiln brown stain in radiata pine (Pinus radiata) is a chocolate-brown discolouration that forms near the surface of boards dried at high temperature. This stain is the result of a thermochemical reaction between compounds in the sap that accumulate at ...

AbstractHigh pressure (20 MPa), cyclic, supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) treatments can reduce the moisture content of green Pinus radiata sapwood from 150–200% to 35–40%. Such treatments can be used as a dewatering pre-treatment before the kiln-drying of timber.

Measurement of colour development in Pinus radiata sapwood boards during drying at various schedules
Colour changes, such as kiln brown stain, that develop in Pinus radiata boards during kiln drying can reduce the value of the final wood products and result in significant losses due to downgrade or waste of dried wood by removing the darkened surfaces ...

Use of a modified drying medium to prevent discolouration of radiata pine sapwood during kiln drying
Wood darkening and kiln brown stain (KBS) in kiln drying has caused significant economic loss to the wood processing industry which. Although extensive studies have been performed, feasible drying techniques have not yet been developed to economically ...

SURFACE COLOUR CHANGE IN WOOD DURING DRYING ABOVE AND BELOW FIBRE SATURATION POINT
A technique, useful for studying the formation of kiln brown stain in wood drying, has been developed to measure the surface colour change in a single board wood sample during drying.

Surface colour change in wood during drying above and below fibre saturation point
A technique, useful for studying the formation of kiln brown stain in wood drying, has been developed to measure the surface colour change in a single board wood sample during drying. The wood sample is planed carefully in the green state to remove any

The drying of wet materials induces a number of physico-chemical changes in the product, often reflected in colour. For dried products sold on appearance, like certain grades of wood, the extent of colour development is highly significant in terms of the
